The before and after look of a PDO threads forehead lift are truly stunning. Those glabellar lines that appear between your eyebrows and make it look like you’re sad, stern or even depressed can be completely eradicated.
As we get older, there are things that happen to our face naturally that we simply can’t stop. One of those things is the development of what are referred to as “frown lines.”
These lines, known as glabellar lines, appear between the eyebrows and can make you look more serious, stern or even depressed at times. These are not looks that many people would desire, especially when they are not feeling those emotions.
Fortunately, there are ways that frown lines can be treated today without having to undergo expensive and invasive surgical procedures. One of the leading ways to do so is by using PDO threads to treat glabellar lines.
This non-invasive alternative to surgery lifts up parts of your skin and treats glabellar lines in a quick, easy and painless way, with results appearing quickly and lasting a long time.
Below, we’ll provide more details on how PDO threads work for a forehead lift, including what the before and after looks like.
What are PDO Threads?
PDO threads are very thin threads that are inserted into your skin using a pre-loaded cannula — in a similar way to how a doctor inserts an IV line. These threads are made of a synthetic polymer that is 100% biodegradable and biocompatible, which means there’s very little chance of negative reactions or complications.
PDO threads have actually been used as dissolvable sutures in surgical procedures for more than 50 years now, and have entered the mainstream of aesthetic medicine procedures in the last 20 years.
Once the PDO threads are inserted into your skin, your body will begin to break them down using natural processes. This means that they don’t ever have to be removed.
How Do PDO Threads Work for a Forehead Lift?
Before your provider inserts the PDO threads, they will numb the area. Once it’s sufficiently numb, they will carefully place the smooth PDO threads in place, ensuring that they are equally divided between your eyebrows.
This will help to smooth out the glabellar lines in a neat and effective way. Your provider will know exactly where to position the threads so that you can achieve the best results.
The procedure itself takes less than an hour from start to finish. Once it’s done, you will be able to resume most of your daily activities as soon as you leave the office, though you will be advised to avoid certain activities and medication for a week or so.
Over the next six months, your body will break down the PDO threads naturally. In doing so, your body will produce extra collagen in the area, which will help the results last longer and even add more elasticity to your skin, making it look plumper and more youthful.
In general, the results of a PDO thread forehead lift can last as much as 18 months or more. Patients who opt for a small touch-up procedure around the six- or nine-month mark may even see results that last for as many as three years.
PDO Threads Forehead Thread Lift Before and After
The before and after look of a PDO threads forehead lift are truly stunning. Those glabellar lines that appear between your eyebrows and make it look like you’re sad, stern or even depressed can be completely eradicated.
In a short amount of time after the procedure, you will start to notice the results. The lines will fade away as the PDO threads and the barbs on them do their job.
What you’ll notice is that your skin will be lifted up like it was when you were younger. Not only that, but the extra collagen that’s produced in the area will make your skin look smoother, plumper and shinier — in good ways.
A forehead thread lift using PDO threads is almost like a night-and-day procedure. You will appear not only “happier” in the face but more youthful as well. That’s why it’s one of the leading treatment options for frown lines and why so many people today are choosing it.
